Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Lian Yongwang and Laifu began to interrogate all the court ladies and eunuchs one by one after hearing this: what unusual behavior did Mi'er have before she disappeared, where did she go, who did she meet, and when was the last time she saw her? When and where.

Although Mi'er was already cautious enough in her actions, there were a lot of servants and eunuchs in Shou'an Palace, so someone would always notice her.

It's just that before the incident happened, everyone had no doubts about her casual excuse.

After being interrogated by Lian Yongwang and Lai Fu, the matter came to a conclusion very quickly. Mi'er once used the name of the queen mother to send snacks to the sixth prince's wet nurse, and the last little maid of Mi'er also said that she was in Mi'er. Son smelled of kerosene.

The snack must have been mixed with drug, and the drug should not immediately pass out after being hit, so the wet nurse will only feel sleepy after eating the snack, but will not pass out immediately.

Then when it was time for the sixth prince to breastfeed, the wet nurse fed the sixth prince again, and at this time the wet nurse's milk also contained the drug.

The sixth prince "sleeped" after eating the nurse's milk. After the nurse carried the sixth prince back to the room, she "slept" as soon as she relaxed.

It is already summer now, the sky is dry and everything is dry, if Mi'er pours a little kerosene around the room where the sixth prince sleeps, it only needs a little spark to set the whole house on fire in an instant.

By the time everyone realizes something is wrong, it will be too late.

Originally, the plan went smoothly, but Mi'er and the people behind it probably never thought that the fourth princess would secretly carry the sixth prince out of the palace in a basket.

After clarifying these things, it is no doubt that the person who set the fire was Mi'er, but Mi'er himself may have died in the fire.

That's exactly what happened.

After the guards cleared the fire site, they carried out nine corpses. Besides the bodies of the wet nurse and the person who rushed into the fire site to save others, there was only one female corpse left, which was Mi'er.

And if you want to know exactly who Mi'er was instructed to do this, you can only start from the people Mi'er has come into contact with.

There were not many people who knew in advance that Luo Chengjing and Lu Wanning were going to leave the palace today, only the people who served Lu Wanning and those who served Luo Chengjing, so the people behind it should not have known in advance that Luo Chengjing and Lu Wanning were going to leave the palace today, and made arrangements in advance.

Since it was not arranged in advance, it must be a temporary decision today to instruct Mi'er to do this, which means that Mi'er definitely had contact with the person behind it today.

And according to the little eunuch guarding the gate of Shou'an Palace, he saw a little eunuch from the imperial dining room come to look for Mi'er today.

It's a pity that when Lian Yongwang sent someone to find the little eunuch, the little eunuch was already dead.

The little eunuch in a place like the imperial dining room would have contact with various palaces on weekdays, so it would be more troublesome to find out who the little eunuch was.

At this time, it was getting late, so Luo Chengjing handed over the matter to Lian Yongwang, asking him to continue to investigate, while he personally sent the Queen Mother to Changde Hall.

After the Empress Dowager settled down in Changde Palace, Luo Chengjing went to Ruichang Palace again.

The sixth prince had already woken up at this time, and was lying on the bed moving his arms and legs. Lu Wanning held a rattle in his hand and sat beside him, teasing him.

As soon as Lu Wanning shook the rattle, he stopped what he was doing and stared at the rattle in Lu Wanning's hand. After watching for a while, he would still be babbling, ahhh, and talking to Lu Wanning.

When Luo Chengjing came in, he just heard the voice of the sixth prince babbling. At this moment, the coldness in his eyes faded a little, and a little warmth was tainted.

In Funing Palace, Concubine Ming was leaning on the soft bed by the window, feigning sleep with her eyes closed, half of her face was illuminated by the flickering candlelight, making her teeth and claws show.

"Empress Taifei, it's getting late, you should rest." The palace maid Cong Ying reminded.

Concubine Ming replied faintly, opened her eyes, and asked Congying, "Where is the third prince?"

Congying replied: "The third prince has already fallen asleep."

Concubine Ming nodded, but she didn't get up from the slump, but looked in the direction of Ruichang Palace outside the window, and said softly: "You said... how is the sixth prince so lucky?"

Congying said: "Ms. Taifei, good luck this time does not mean that I will have such good luck next time. A person's good luck will eventually run out."

"Next time?" Concubine Ming shook her head lightly, fearing that it would not be easy.

Here, Lian Yongwang didn't sleep all night, and finally found out something about the matter when Luo Chengjing woke up the next day.

Lian Yongwang questioned everyone in the imperial dining room, including everyone who worked around the imperial dining room, and then arrested and interrogated all the people in the palaces who had contact with the little eunuch in the imperial dining room yesterday.

In order to get the result of the trial as soon as possible, he directly sent all the people who had come into contact with the little eunuch from the various palaces to the inner court prison.

After some torture, the little eunuch next to He Jieyu in Qingren Palace showed his flaws.

When Lian Yongwang interrogated these people, he never mentioned how the little eunuch in the imperial dining room died. Everyone only knew that the little eunuch died.

But there are many ways to commit suicide. If the court ladies and eunuchs in the palace don’t want to live, they usually choose to commit suicide by hanging themselves or throwing themselves into wells. These two suicide methods don’t require anything else, as long as they want to die, they can die anytime. On the contrary, there are not many people who take poison to commit suicide, because poison is not available to all these court ladies and eunuchs.

But when Lian Yongwang was interrogating the little eunuch in Qingren Palace, the little eunuch denied that he was really not familiar with that little eunuch, let alone killed him by poison.

Lian Yongwang sneered after hearing this, "Who told you he died of poisoning?"

The little eunuch in Qingren Palace realized that he had slipped his tongue, and hurriedly made up for it: "I guess."

"You can guess, why don't you guess that he threw himself into a well?" Lian Yongwang continued to interrogate.

The little eunuch's mind turned quickly, and he replied: "I thought that if I threw it into the well, the body would not be found so quickly."

"Then why don't you guess he was hanged?"

"small……"

The little eunuch couldn't answer for a while, Lian Yongwang said with a cold face: "Why don't you invite him, who ordered you to poison him?"

The little eunuch hurriedly shouted for injustice: "The little one is wronged, even the manager, it's really not a small matter, the small one is really just a random guess."

"You can guess so accurately with just a random guess!" Lian Yongwang snorted coldly, and said, "Since you are so good at guessing, then you guess the poison in the tea that the little eunuch drinks, or the poison in drinking?"

The little eunuch rolled his eyes, avoided the correct answer perfectly, opened his mouth and said, "Your guess is wine, it's wine."
